2.1 Safety Symbols
The following symbols are used in this document:
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in minor or moderate injury. It can also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
NOTICE
Indicates important information, including situations that can result in damage to equipment or property.
2.2 Qualified Personnel
Correct and reliable transport, storage, installation, operation, and maintenance are required for the troublefree and safe operation of the frequency converter. Only qualified personnel are allowed to install or operate this equipment.
Qualified personnel are defined as trained staff, who are authorised to install, commission, and maintain equipment, systems, and circuits in accordance with pertinent laws and regulations. Additionally, the personnel must be familiar with the instructions and safety measures described in these operating instructions.
2.3 Safety Precautions
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
Frequency converters contain high voltage when connected to AC mains input power. Failure to perform installation, start up, and maintenance by qualified personnel could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
UNINTENDED START
When the frequency converter is connected to AC mains, DC power supply, or load sharing, the motor can start at any time. Unintended start during programming, service, or repair work can result in death, serious injury, or property damage. The motor can start with an external switch, a fieldbus command, an input reference signal from the LCP or LOP, via remote operation using a software tool, or after a cleared fault condition.
To prevent unintended motor start:
•Disconnect the frequency converter from mains.
•Press [Off/Reset] on the LCP before programming parameters.
•Ensure the frequency converter, motor, and any driven equipment are fully wired and assembled when the frequency converter is connected to AC mains, DC power supply, or load sharing.
WARNING
DISCHARGE TIME
The frequency converter contains DC-link capacitors, which can remain charged even when the frequency converter is not powered. Failure to wait the specified time after power has been removed before performing service or repair work could result in death or serious injury.
•Stop the motor.
•Disconnect AC mains and remote DC-link power supplies, including battery back-ups, UPS, and DC-link connections to other frequency converters.
•Disconnect or lock the PM motor.
•Wait for the capacitors to discharge fully before performing any service or repair work. The duration of waiting time is specified in
Table 2.1.
•Only qualified personnel are permitted to perform installation, start up, and maintenance.

WARNING
EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Contact with rotating shafts and electrical equipment can result in death or serious injury.
•Ensure that only trained and qualified personnel perform installation, start up, and maintenance.
•Ensure that electrical work conforms to national and local electrical codes.
•Follow the procedures in this manual.
WARNING
UNINTENDED MOTOR ROTATION WINDMILLING
Unintended rotation of permanent magnet motors can result in serious injury or equipment damage.
•Ensure that permanent magnet motors are blocked to prevent unintended rotation.
WARNING
LEAKAGE CURRENT HAZARD
Follow national and local codes regarding protective earthing of equipment with a leakage current exceeding 3.5 mA. Frequency converter technology implies high frequency switching at high power. This switching generates a leakage current in the ground connection. A fault current in the frequency converter at the output power terminals can contain a DC component which can charge the filter capacitors and cause a transient ground current. The ground leakage current depends on various system configurations including RFI filtering, screened motor cables, and frequency converter power. EN/IEC 61800-5-1 (Power Drive System Product Standard) requires special care because the leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA. See EN 60364-5-54 paragraph 543.7 for further information.
•Ensure correct grounding of the equipment by a certified electrical installer.
•Grounding must be reinforced in one of the following ways:
-Ensure the ground wire has a crosssection of at least 10 mm2, or
-Ensure 2 separate ground wires, both complying with the dimensioning rules, are used.
NOTICE
HIGH ALTITUDES
For installation at altitudes above 2000 m, contact 2 2 Danfoss regarding PELV.
WARNING
DC CURRENT RISK
This product can cause a DC current in the protective conductor. Failure to follow the precautions can lead to personal injury or property damage.
Take the following precautions:
•Where a residual current device (RCD) is used for extra protection, use only an RCD of Type B (time delayed) on the supply side of this product.
•Protective earthing of the frequency converter and the use of RCDs must always follow national and local regulations.
WARNING
GROUNDING HAZARD
For operator safety, it is important to ground the frequency converter properly in accordance with national and local electrical codes, as well as the instructions in this manual. Ground currents are higher than 3.5 mA. Failure to ground the frequency converter properly could result in death or serious injury.
It is the responsibility of the user, or certified electrical installer, to ensure correct grounding of the equipment according to national and local electrical codes and standards.
•Follow all local and national electrical codes to ground electrical equipment properly.
•Establish proper protective grounding for equipment with current higher than 3.5 mA.
•A dedicated ground wire is required for input power, motor power, and control wiring.
•Use the clamps provided on the equipment for proper ground connections.
•Do not ground one frequency converter to another in a daisy chain fashion.
•Keep the ground wire connections as short as possible.
•Use high-strand wire to reduce electrical noise.
•Follow the motor manufacturer wiring requirements.
